Philip Stahl

Philip Stahl joined NEWS9 in March 2010. He currently anchors the weekend editions of NEWS9 at Six and NEWS9 Tonight and primarily works out of the NEWS9 Wheeling Newsroom, where you can catch him reporting throughout the week.

A Wheeling native, Philip is proud to call the Ohio Valley home.  Since his teenage years, it was one of his goals to work at WTOV9.  A 2006 graduate of Wheeling Park High School, he knew television news was for him when he started taking television and radio classes and learned to love it all!

Philip is a 2010 Dean’s List graduate of West Liberty University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Communications with a Broadcasting Concentration.  In college, Philip took the initiative to create, produce and host the very first student-produced show on the college’s cable channel, West Liberty Television, WLTV-14.  The show “Inside West Liberty” ran for 65 episodes before Philip graduated.  He also produced, anchored, and hunted down stories for the station's bi-weekly newscast, "Newsline14," for two years.

He also is a proud Eagle Scout from Troop 6 in Wheeling.  Philip also received several volunteerism awards. He was presented with the distinguished 2006 Governor’s Service Award by then West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin.

Philip enjoys comedy, and spending time with his close friends. When out and about, Philip likes to walk and exercise along the Wheeling Heritage Trails; ski on the local slopes during the winter; travel; and spend time with his family and dog, Charlie. You can also see him cheering on his alma mater come basketball season.
